I Got Kicked Out of Medical School | Story Time | My Reflection and Future Plans | Medical Student

[@NeishaG]

Hey everyone, this video is my story and something that has effected me tremendously over the past few months. Please keep the comments kind. What experience has turned your life into a 180? ✨

[@nkyizs4904]

Oof. I feel bad for you. I hope you can get into another med school and if not at the very least a grad school. All the money wasted for the tuition, bills, everything that happens.

Thank you for this video. I got dismissed yesterday from nursing school, 2nd semester. Thank you for helping me through this.

[@navigator11unityhealth-vv6ig]

I can't believe they had the audacity to ask you to do the last minute tour and still not accept your appeal. They're literal criminals, using students as free labour. Student guides are always paid in other universities. They clearly used you at the end, getting your hopes up of the appeal getting accepted if you did the tour. Despicable staff, I hope they get what's coming to them.

Thank you for that! Trust me, I was livid when all of that happened & in such disbelief with how much I was used just to have that outcome. I’m just happy that my situation is different now regardless of the injustice that occurred 🫶🏽

Listen don't be so hard on yourself. I got dismissed from 2 schools and finally graduated from my third and am in my 2nd year of residency in general surgery. if you are still passionate about medicine, keep moving forward. there are schools like st James and AUSOMA that will easily take you.

[@burnoutminion]

I almost got dismissed from my med school back in 2009. I can only tell you, as someone who almost failed in this "medical education" system to eventually having worked in the field for 9 years now, a lot of med schools these days are just out of touch with the reality and practice in medicine. Like literally you don't even need to learn the 90% stuff you were taught in med school in order to be great doctors. It's a disconnected and corrupt system that sucks a lot of money out of students who aspire to be in medical field working.

[@NeishaG]

I've heard many doctors now say this! That majority of things learned in medical school is very outdated and the curriculum needs a massive upgrade! I just wonder when they'll ever do that and realize that the system isn't helping anyone to succeed.

[@clintinb5219]

@@NeishaGhonestly that’s how it is with nursing and Nurse Practitioner schools. Most of the things you learn in school is different from actually working. Keep pushing girl and God bless you and your studies. Go be a doctor.

[@mpdnd1335]

That is absolutely true. It is a series of hoop jumping and memorization of whatever they want you to spout out on a test as a right answer, which may not be correct at all. Medical school is survival camp. Dog eat dog. Not a nice place. A lot of stress to see if you can survive it. Burnout is the end result. That is why so many doctors are actually leaving medicine for something else. It isn't about helping people, it is about serving the pharmaceutical industry.

[@simmypp4498]

Thank you for being transparent about your journey. I was also kicked out of medical school in my first year and the failure was one of the hardest things to process. It took a while for me to deal with the situation let alone talk about it. Your video validated so much of the feelings I could never open up about.

[@NeishaG]

Thank you so much, I really appreciate that! I’m so sorry to hear you experienced the same thing, it’s so tough to go through but I’m grateful we were able to make it through and not give up!

I'm sorry this happened to you. It's so sad that medical schools talk so much about the virtue of compassion yet your school didn't seem to show any toward you in this situation. I honestly believe that everything happens for a reason, and I know God has better plans for you. This could be a blessing in disguise, mark my words. Keep your head up.

My ex-friend got dismissed from dental school during our 3rd year; he said he faced a lot of racial discrimination - which is true because I faced the same thing. For me I sucked it up and made it through, but he let it consume him. Instead of applying to other dental schools, he spiraled into depression and after 7 years he became extremely toxic so I broke off my friendship with him. I wish the best for you and hope you don’t give up on your dream.

Neisha, thank you for sharing such a emotional topic. I feel for you when you talk about how difficult medical school is. As a medical student, I can empathize with you in the obstacles and challenges that medical schools throw at us. However, this is not meant for everyone. In addition, some schools are harder than others. Having the mental power and ability along with the hard work and dedication can help one get through the tribulations. At the end of the day it is truly important for you to do what is in the best for you. The fact that you are able to walk away from something like this shows tremendous strength in your ability to do what is best for yourself. I wish nothing but the best for you. Thank you for sharing!

[@medstudentRose]

Thank you for sharing your journey and I admire your persistence. I also got kicked out during my third year of med school and right now, I have a lot of uncertainties. It was really a lot to process for failing a subject just for a few marks from the passing score. Despite the setbacks, I am determined to continue my med journey. Your video is quite validating as some of my family can't really understand the struggle to juggle family matters and studying. I also gone through the emotional and mental exhaustion and it is really hard to open up about it to my tutors. I am still in the process of looking for another opportunity somewhere else.. Praying for the continuation of your journey. Hope you'll prove the school that you will become a competent doctor in the future.. I am glad you had a second chance elsewhere.. It is a season of growth and all about learning from our failures that matters❤

Thank you so much for taking the time to watch my video, and I'm truly sorry to hear about your situation.

Continue on your Medical journey if that's something you want to do, and I believe and support you 100%!

I never thought that I would encounter this video here. I got dismissed last year, around May here in my own country. I actually tried searching for videos here on youtube like "kick out of med school" and the like but I haven't found anything. I was so depressed. In my case tho, I've already repeated subjects in my school, reason for my dismissal is that I failed 3 subjects and I didn't meet the maintaining grade/percentage. No formal letter. We, students, who got dismissed is the one who should message the committee etc. It was so painful. I already transferred. to a new school now but I still haven't fully moveed on. The time, energy, friends that I made.. all wasted :(

This is absolutely unbelievable, corrupt & shady practice by the school. Thank you for sharing your story, I can imagine this happening to so many students, but we don't know or hear about it because they don't have the same platform/base you do. Thank you for bringing awareness. To have this happen to you, and get yourself back up and transfer and start again from scratch, if that's not resilience, I don't know what is. So, keep fighting and never give up on your dream. The school simply stole the money, I imagine they do this to many students, enroll a bunch of people, when they make it to semester 4-5, the school panics that it probably needs to get rid of half the class because they probably don't have enough clinical spots, so they start making things difficult. For example, the paper/scantron test, the fu$%? Is this the 1990s? They knew what they were doing, they gave a difficult course, the semester was impossible to pass. They got what they wanted, students money, and failing half the class. The fact that it was sent to 16 other students?! Not a coincidence. I think what upsets me the most about this, is the fact the dean didn't have the audacity to take students meetings. This tells you A LOT about this school, and how they're running it. Definitely avoiding Medical University of America at ALL COSTS!

UTRGV is in Texas. I dropped a class June 2, 2023, in time for a 100% refund. Instead, the school’s registrar refused to drop the class despite having a “higher up” email the registrar asking why the class hadn’t been dropped. I then received an email from the financial aid director stating I need to withdraw from the class and i was now eligible for a 0% refund. They wanted to keep $2k of my student loans for a class that I dropped. The W would also suspend me from financial aid eligibility and would put me on an academic probation for 2 semesters. I filed a formal complaint with the Dept of Ed (federal) and TX Board of High Ed (state). ALL schools have their problem staff 😊

I’m so glad you’re sharing your story. This is a very important lesson that medical students need to understand during school and beyond. Your school is not your friend! An older friend told me this before I started med school and it has helped me time and time again. I never speak to the admins or professors in person; everything is in writing over email. It helped me to pull up an email whenever an admin or prof tried to something. Esp for women, minority students, you’ve got to watch your back! You did so much for your school and it’s so hurtful to see that they just threw you to the side when it was most convenient for them

[@Nanajsiuz]

If you are premed, this is why Caribbean schools are talked down upon on sdn and Reddit. They are for profit institutions that do not follow US accreditation standards due to being offshore and engage in unethical and predatory behavior that ultimately harms students. Caribbean schools have no problem failing out more than half their class since there is no way they can accommodate all their students during clinical rotations. Also match rates in the US are abysmal due to stigma. Do not go this route unless it’s your last resort.

[@NeishaG]

They are for-profit schools however everything else you said is very false information. Most of these schools are accredited and have audited visits to ensure they're up to US standards and their head offices are based in the states. The match rates are no bad, I don't know what statistics you're looking at but a lot of residency spots went unmatched and hundred of IMG students were able to match into their residencies. I suggest clearly not reading your information on Reddit and those sites and they're very inaccurate and changing your resources. Its not a last resort as many students especially Canadian students cannot get into a medical school in Canada because the admissions are VERY LOW to get in with the lack of schools and seats available, where majority of Canadians are actually at Caribbean medical schools.

[@mike112693]

@@NeishaG the match rates are def bad if youre not in the popular carib schools. Also it's way harder to match into competitive specialties. Carib schools def seem less forgiving when it comes to failing students. It def is a last resort for most american ppl. Maybe not for Canadians. The reddit warnings have a lot of truth to them.

[@mila.love777]

⁠@@NeishaGhe’s right. You’re a Canadian studying there as an international student. Even if they’re accredited, in the event of mishandling situation that involves a lawyer and a court, the head office in the states will put the entire blame on the institution in the Carib. There’s a business model that only a good lawyer can expose but they know students are already in debt and wouldn’t risk it.

I remember having a very similar scenario to yours with a class back at UofT. It had to do with me handing in a late paper. Luckily for me when I argued my case about my paper not being accepted after a certain date I used and quoted the course syllabus like crazy to make them change their decision and it worked. It sucks but sometimes these syllabus/book guidelines are filled with ways that you can win an appeal. Also I can't even imagine how difficult that was getting that terrible news on that one day and knowing all that hard work for those 2 years and money all gone. I hope your parents and other family was supportive of you through that extremely difficult time.

First thing, thank you so much for your humility and all in sharing this. Second, something very similar happened to me where I got hit by a car and nearly killed as a student but the appeals committee didn't care about my appeal so I moved from Calgary, Canada to Berlin, Germany where I'm starting over fresh and studying aerospace engineering. These unfair situations in academia are heart-wrenching and horrible! You are a strong and beautiful young lady, not to mention incredibly talented too. I'm actually glad you didn't have the finances necessary to find a lawyer, because schools are heartless with litigation and they can take years and years. I lost faith in humanity through filing a mini suit against my school. It's the MUA's loss!!! All the best to you, future doc Neisha. (PS my parents are doctors and you're made for this!)

Oh Wowww! Put on probation due to withdrawing from 2 classes!? It would have been nice for someone to point that out verbally. Student handbooks are hard to digest.

So after hearing your strong recommendation about reading the student handbook, I would then suggest that students sit down with admin or a counselor if they have questions about the handbook and go through it together.

[@NeishaG]

I know right! It seems very extreme to me that just from withdrawing from courses that that would count for being put on probation. But unfortunately that's how it was and I wish I was told that prior to making the decision to withdraw.

[@NeishaG]

@@yahainHotPink That would be very nice, but again, it's the trust with admin and certain people that work for the school. and personally the admin or counsellors at international medical schools aren't the greatest for support and questions like that.

I’m glad to see your video. I was put into Academic Dismissal suspension. In my case I was an international student. I struggling in one with one class. The school advisor told me that if for some reason I failed a written/practicum test I can redo it, so that’s why I stayed in the class that I struggling. I was able to study on second semester, but in the middle and almost finishing the semester the advisor told me that I was put in “approbation” because of one failed class. I told her that I studied for the redo test, but I’ve never received the invitation to do it. Then I reunited with the register officer and the advisor to explained my struggles etc and make the letter of appeal (this happened before I discovered that I was already suspended). I was able to do my final exams and nobody was aware that I was already out. One week after vacation I arrived to campus and went through moodle page and I didn’t saw any my new classes enrolled so I suspected that something happened. I went through to the emails and I found out that I was suspended on August 10 (saw the letter on Sept 03). Then I found out that the register officer and advisor didn’t followed the policy. Imagine travelled 12 hours and found out that you’re out.

[@NeishaG]

Thank you for taking the time to watch my video. I'm so sorry to hear what happened to you! It's so unfortunate and the school is at fault for being that disorganized that they failed to update you accordingly. It would've saved you so much time and money with travel. I understand and resonate with your situation. Keep your head high, take time out for yourself, take a mental break, then regroup again to deicide your next steps.

You are absolutely correct. She was too busy with co-curricular and extra-curricular activities to be successful in medical school. She literally said "I didn't think they would release me because I was so involved and I had good grades, etc....". None of that has to do with the quantitative data...either you pass the tests or you don't. I hope she's more focused and doing better.

[@cyryl9571]

If you are considering going down the Carribean route, you are likely better off financially with better alternative career prospects than most people. Why risk it all? Just be thankful for what you already have. Because it is a lot! All these schools knowingly over enroll students, force them to take out loans, and only allow a small minority of students graduate. Especially at an institution that is not part of the "big 4". After graduation, your residency prospects are going to be the least competitive specialties and/or in undesirable locations. Of course, you can always reapply, but most programs will screen you out if you have been out of school for too long. Same thing if you try to get a job using your premed undergrad degree.

[@NeishaG]

What's life without risks? If you stay in one spot, it'll never get you anywhere especially when a person never had everything to begin with. Over-enrollment, loans, and tough residencies? Sounds like you’re describing med school everywhere, not just the Caribbean. But hey, if you’d rather stay comfortable and let others go after the bigger dreams, that’s your choice. I’d just hate to be the one watching from the stands while others are making moves.

I think it’s brave to tell your story, it helps ppl to hear about failure tbh. However, I work in business and no one cares about your feelings or your reasons that may or may not be excuses, the only thing that matters is results. I suggest you focus on studying instead of doing all the extra curricula stuff, that’s not going to help you pass an exam or treat a patient.

[@davisholman8149]

Please notice the number of medical school graduates not picked up for residency programs. It is highly competitive. Several vlog on KZbin describe individuals in that predicament. I agree with your with everything you said in your comment. Doctors are type A high achievers. Doing well in all their classes in medical school is the number one most important thing the student will spend their time on. The apartment can go unvacuumed, you might have to eat a sandwich or a bowl of cereal for dinner. STUDYING is your job!

[@NeishaG]

That's great to hear, only if I was going into business. Of course extra curriculars aren't going to help me pass an exam or treat a patient, but if you were actually in the medical field, you would know that these are things that are needed to ADD to your resume to get into a great residency. Maybe in the future before commenting on a video, actually do some research before making an ignorant comment like this. Thanks and have a great day in business.

[@arjunkapur1840]

Hey, don’t want to rub salt in the wound but this is a genuine question. I understand that the standards are quite high to matriculate into both Canadian and U.S.(MD/DO) programs. I myself have been undergoing the 2022-2023 cycle. Why did you choose to pursue a Caribbean Med school? Do you think that may have played a role in the faculty not being as helpful to you? In general, do you think you were academically ready for Medical School? With the time frame you mention, I assume you got accepted to another Caribbean Med School. Why are you choosing to pursue that choice again? I really do not want to come across as rude or insulting. However, it does seem that Caribbean Med schools cater to those who don’t have the credentials to matriculate elsewhere so that’s why I ask.

[@NeishaG]

With the US and Canadian medical schools, there's a lot of competition and numerous students applying. Thus, there's not enough room for many students to attend schools, so students go to the Caribbean to study rather than going onto do a masters and PDH and then applying to medical school (that's money and years spent). I am academically ready, however I told you my story already and that's what had happened. Nothing with me not being academically ready. To reiterate, I chose to pursue this again because I already spent 2 years studying medicine, so I'm not going to give up on my career goals. It's not necessarily that they cater to those who don't have credentials, but there's many reasons that people go to Caribbean medical schools, such as career changes, having families, competition, etc. There's so many other reasons.

[@CK-fh8ny]

@@NeishaG Not to be mean, but why are you so set on a Caribbean medical school. I'm worried you are not fully aware of how much greener and stable it is to go to medical school in Ireland, UK or Australia. Why would you gamble your money at a school that will kick you out anytime. If you don't match you have zero options to work. You end up 200 k in debt with no way to pay it off if you don't match. At least in Ireland, UK, and Australia you can stay to work as an intern and get more experience. Caribbean schools are run by the mafia pretty much. They don't care about you.

[@ytsamurai1962]

Yes, Caribbean med schools are for those who don’t have the credentials to matriculate elsewhere. Anyone that says otherwise is either coping or intentionally misleading you. Obviously she was not academically ready which is why she was dismissed. And also why she was not accepted to a Canadian or US program.

[@arjunkapur1840]

@@ytsamurai1962 Some definitely do make it from Caribbean Med Schools! Unfortunately, I do agree. It does seem that going to the Caribbean is a gamble that I personally would not take. Canadian MD standards for the mcat borderline crazy though. Pretty sure, they have a pretty high CARS minimum. Also, it’s so tough to get into an American MD program with Canadian residency. It’s seems like such a catch 22 for Canadian kids. I honestly feel bad for them.

I will sound harsh. But this is just a business, they use international students to bank the tuitions from the first years. After that you become replaceable, the more free spots the more students they can accept.

[@TDDVlogs]

I think it’s very important for anyone who wishes to go to a Caribbean school to note that these are FOR-PROFIT institutions. They do not care about the dreams of their students, nor whether or not they succeed (a lot of data suggests that many of them don’t)

[@NeishaG]

This is not true. Everyone is an international student when it comes to a Caribbean medical school. They are for-profit schools. Currently right now their class sizes have downsized to 12 students, and they decreased their tuition. They can accept how many students but its the students choice to go there after the acceptance since they're currently struggling with numbers.

As a graduate of a Caribbean medical school (one of the top 5 accredited) and current resident, I can tell you that all the schools follow the rules and operate in the same American fashion. A person must be intelligent, motivated, hard working and resilient to succeed in med school.

[@prestonsummerhays-br2jm]

Let me summarize for everyone: - Student was put on probation for dropping out of classes that she couldn’t handle. - Student failed class while already on probation. The handbook says she’d get dismissed for that. - Student appealed dismissal, but couldn’t undo the past…obviously. Why are you surprised with the result? You proved to them MULTIPLE times (not just one class) that you couldn’t handle the workload. You’re complicating the facts. Yes, we all feel sad about your situation, but think about the precedent they’d be setting if they approved your appeal

[@NeishaG]

I don’t understand why you need to further degrade the situation and humiliate it when it happens to a lot of students. No one in this world is perfect. I’m not complicating the facts when a lot of the information that could’ve prevented this wasn’t delivered. Again, it’s easier to make these claims you wrote when one isn’t enduring the situation or a witness of it.

@@NeishaG my point is that you’re casting most of the blame on others. The medical school is not out to get you, I promise. They want your money! Your situation absolutely sucks, however, they must uphold their policies for many different reasons, and you’re dragging their name through the mud and damaging their reputation for doing just that (the algorithm is suggesting this video to ppl like myself within the medical field). Hope this makes sense

@@NeishaG It happens to a lot of students because a lot of students are not fit to be physicians but they refuse to accept that fact and try anyway. If you choose to keep making mistakes then nobody can help you.

I just got dismissed from my pharmacy program for failing a class as well… ty so much for talking about it My dean also ignored my emails asking for advice & info. *sigh*

[@NeishaG]

I’m so sorry to hear about that! I hope you’re coping with it well and still working hard towards your end goal! I’m sorry the dean ignored your emails too, it’s sucks when they’re one of the only people you can turn to for help and they do nothing. You’re strong, intelligent and you will get thru this! I believe in you! 🤍🤍

@@NeishaG I’m honestly not sure if I should continue this path.. what if it’s not for me?

[@NeishaG]

@@maggie206 honestly that’s what I thought too right after my dismissal. But I reapplied again and I told myself if I got in, I’d continue medicine, if I didn’t, I’d probably go and do my masters. But I reapplied and got in, and now I’m in my second year at medical school (again) at a different school learning better than at my previous school. It’s up to you what your path is, but if pharmacy is something you really want to do, then go for it! Everyone’s journey is different and I always believe everything happens for a reason, so if you, want try pharmacy again and see here it leads you! Don’t give up ♥️
